I am so disappointed in this recipe I registered just to be able to comment.
I followed the recipe exactly. Only the shrimp came out edible. There is far too much cornstarch and far too little flavor in this recipe. It is nothing like the shrimp in lobster sauce I have ordered in restaurants, and I order it a lot in many different cities. The cornstarch also makes it very messy to cook. The sauce should be off-whitish, this one is the color of mud and has a similar consistency.

I made this for my moms bday and everyone loved it. Very easy and uncomplicated. I used regular sherry instead of cooking, and I did add some green onions at the end of cooking, as some of the reviews suggested.

I made this tonight, tastes just like P.F. Chang's! I loved it and will make it again and again. I would be proud to serve this to guests. (I didn't have any pork, so I just made the recipe without it. It was great!)

I make this recipe all the time - it's my favorite!!! I've learned that if you want it to look more, cook the egg in a separate pan and add in to the sauce when it's done. It's not so gray and bland looking.

My family and I really enjoyed this recipe. I’ve made it twice. The first time I substituted Seafood Stock for the water and used Harvey’s Bristol Creme. It was awesome, tasted just like or local Chinese restaurant. The second time I made the recipe exactly like it was written (didn’t do any substitutes), but I doubled it because the first time we didn’t have enough. It wasn’t as good the 2nd time. I think the Seafood Stock added a lot of flavor. I will definitely use the stock in the future.

I'm super picky about my shrimp with lobster sauce, so I was a little hesitant to try this recipe, having never attempted to recreate my favorite Chinese dish, but I am so glad I did! The only changes I made was I halved the shrimp and added water chestnuts and bamboo shoots and a chicken bouillon cube per other reviewers recommendations. It just really needs some sort of veggie, so pick your favorites and add plenty of them since there is enough sauce to go around.
